| description |
One of the objectives of a GFDRR funded
project in Armenia (Institutional Arrangements on Disaster
Risk Management and Reduction) is awareness building among
the decision makers, professional engineering and
construction community, and local self-governments on the
modern, anti-seismic technologies successfully developed and
implemented in Armenia. To raise awareness on the seismic
isolation technology it was decided to first evaluate the
functioning of all seismic isolation systems in the already
constructed buildings in Armenia. Then based on the carried
out observations to analyze the results, to draw lessons
from the findings and to present the conclusions and
recommendations to the wider engineering and construction
community, as well as to the decision makers in the
construction industry. For that purpose monitoring and
evaluation of the technical conditions of the seismic
isolation systems in the buildings which were seismically
isolated for more than a decade ago was carried out. This
initiative was very useful, as it helped to answer to the
frequently asked questions and concerns on the
sustainability and effectiveness of the technology, of the
seismic isolators. It also helped to draw lessons and
recommend solutions for improving their construction and
maintenance practices. |
